Melissa Teixeira. A Third Path: Corporatism in Brazil and Portugal
Desenvolvimento como superação da condição colonial: A Influência De Longo Prazo Das Formulações Isebianas
O presente artigo analisa as transformações socioeconómicas, políticas e culturais ocorridas no contexto de polarização ideológica do Brasil de meados do século XX, com base na rica reflexão promovida dentro do Instituto Superior de Estudos Brasileiros (Iseb). Busca-se apontar possíveis correlações entre tais formulações e desdobramentos regionais mais amplos, tanto no pensamento promovido no âmbito da Comissão Económica para a América Latina (Ce…

A tale of missed opportunities: The Cold War in Brazil
Brazil was not at the forefront of initial Cold War events and US‐Brazil relations have been more often defined by alignment than conflict. Still, Brazil was not immune to the Cold War logic and when these turbulent dynamics became more prevalent in Latin America, Brazil was at the center of US concerns and influence. But though much was promised and attempted, recurrent opportunities for constructive interactions were missed at the price of grow…
Inventing the Third World: In Search of Freedom for the Postwar Global South
How does one write the history of the so-called global South, particularly without being beholden to traditional narratives about the North, especially during a period such as the Cold War, largely defined by North-based actors? How did the process of decolonization affect Cold War dynamics, and how did the Cold War affect this process in turn? Did the Cold War derail decolonial efforts, or did the decolonial project force concessions from global…
Debating Latin America's Cold War: A vision from the south
The historiography on Latin America's Cold War has grown significantly in the last few years. But though the field has expanded in ways that include new perspectives, much could be gained by engaging more closely with voices from the South or works produced by scholars based in Latin America. Similarly, more nuanced analytical framings that pay closer attention to post‐World War II development, particularly in South America, would also enrich our…
Anticorruption and Imperialist Blind Spots: The Role of the United States in Brazil's Long Coup
A comprehensive examination of the evidence available, contained in U.S. government statements, English-language media accounts, and hacked Telegram chats among Brazilian prosecutors, indicates that the United States was closely involved in the "long coup" that removed the left from power in Brazil in 2016 and secured the election of the far-right in 2018. Just as after Brazil's U.S.-backed 1964 coup, this evidence has largely been ignored by U.S…
A Agenda Do Desenvolvimento Nacional E Seu Papel Na Rearticulação Da Atuação Internacional Do Brasil Na Emergência Da Guerra Fria Hemisférica
O Brasil início um complexo processo de modernização econômica, social e cultural em meados do século XX. Tais experiências se fundavam na reorganização da atuação do Estado, tanto no ambiente doméstico, como no cenário internacional. Embora a Guerra Fria hemisférica tenha impedido uma maior redefinição da inserção do país no mundo, projetos importantes nesse sentido foram encaminhados ao longo da década de 1950. O presente artigo revisa tais din…
Big Business and Dictatorships in Latin America: A Transnational History of Profits and Repression
That big business has consistently benefited from procapital repressive regimes, be it in fascist Europe or in bureaucratic authoritarian Latin America, is an open secret, known for a long time. That this important connection has reemerged as a topic of academic investigation speaks to how we live in a moment of revived authoritarian tendencies, nuanced only by the fact that, at least in some countries, restorative justice proceedings have manage…
Missing the China factor: Evidence from Brazil and Mexico
China’s rapid economic growth created new challenges and opportunities for Latin America over the 2000s. Much ink has been spilt analysing how countries in the region surfed the Chinese wave of commodity-based prosperity. However, there is fertile and quite unexplored territory to analyse how these regional powers in the Global South, from a comparative perspective, have interacted with China as they tried to improve their international position …
Antoine Acker. Volkswagen in the Amazon: The Tragedy of Global Development in Modern Brazil
What else is to be said about developmental dynamics in the so-called Third World? How does one provide a new lens to examine capitalist promotion in Latin America during the Cold War? The recently published, creatively framed, and richly researched book Volkswagen in the Amazon: The Tragedy of Global Development in Modern Brazil, by Antoine Acker, offers a valuable contribution to prospectively answering these important questions. Using the Comp…

Brazil, a nation known for far too long as the country of the future, today faces one of its worst political crises. After a similarly precipitous rise to global preeminence in the early 2000s, the

Consolidating the Past and Risking the Future: Colombia's Developmental Trajectory and the Prospects for a Lasting Peace in the Wake of the Havana Accord
In light of the peace accord between the Colombian government and the FARC in 2016, this article scrutinizes present-day dilemmas and obstacles to a sustainable settlement capable of addressing the long-term developmental inequities of Colombia. It is expected that as Colombia becomes more integrated in the globalized economy, the many parties involved in the conflict will increasingly realize that they have more to gain with peace than otherwise…

Ici Comme La-Bas: European thought and the ideational construction of national identity in nineteenth- century Brazil
El siguiente artículo examina las influencias de propuestas intelectuales europeas en la formulación de proyectos socio-políticos en el Brasil del siglo XIX. El análisis se centra en publicaciones de inspiración romática de la mitad del siglo, asi como en las proposiciones positivistas de las últimas décadas del periodo. Mientras intelectuales de Brasil miraban a Europa como fuente principal de sus propuestas artísticas, el campo intelectual naci…
The Brazilian Developmentalist State in Historical Perspective: Revisiting the 1950s in Light of Today's Challenges
The paper assesses the debates between influential writers and decision makers involved in the fast-paced industrialization Brazil embarked upon in the 1950s. Although the period was shaped by high rates of economic growth championed by charismatic nationalist leaders, disagreements pertaining to the role and configuration of the developmental state gave rise to a hybrid agenda of development which combined both liberalizing and interventionist s…
Assessing development and the idea of development in the 1950s in Brazil
The decade of 1950s was a crucial period of the industrialization of the Brazilian economy. The dominant school of thought was the national-developmentalism, which was not restricted to the sphere of economic production but also encompassed political and socio-cultural processes of change. Combining repression, persuasion and paternalism, the national state took a significantly political and economic responsibility in the social, material and sym…

Fifty Years in Five' and What's in It for Us? Development Promotion, Populism, Industrial Workers andCarestiain 1950s Brazil
In the mid-twentieth century, the Brazilian federal government embarked upon an ambitious plan of fast-paced industrialisation aimed at responding to the growing needs of the country's ever more urbanised population. While the plan achieved rapid economic growth, rising levels of discontent defined much of the political behaviour of urban labour in the period. By critically examining some of the main events affecting industrial unions during the …
